This one is fairly simple, but it was the inspiration that I had to buy my bike. I figured there was hope for my bike that had what looked like a half gallon tank and a couch for a seat when I saw this one.

i love this bike. wish i knew who built it or where i can get pipes like that

I know I probably ask this like every other post I make, but seeing my lack of fabrication skills and desire to replace my stock seat, anybody know where I can get something like this? It's pretty much perfect - cafe style but seats two.

And we all know half the point of a motorcycle is to woo the ladies.

Proteal's cb has already been posted but his is one of my favorites. A few of these bikes are floating along in this forum so you might recognize em'

And for all you KZ lovers hiding out here

But as for me the bike that truly did it besides garret's cb and proteals's cb750 is this baby:

Exactly what I want to do with my 71 cb750...sweet...

We can't forget about the completely bada$$ cafes built by a bunch of high school kids...

They have a pretty good write up on their website:

Went to Mods vs Rockers today saw a sh1tload of really choice work , i mean seriously. Chicago's custom bike scene is amazing the last few years

i forgot to bring an extra memory card, there were so many bikes i wanted to put in this thread here are a few

mods v rockers (if you cant tell by the name) is also a scooter show

this was great for laugh, by me and the owner of it. man that dude was just as strange as his ride

half fast was there in full force (along with TonUpChicago), a nice BCR

look familiar?

this bike was sooooo sick look close ......thats etched

... and yes i absolutely voted for this scooter

I'm 90 something percent sure that's an Omar's seat. I think he's tweaked the design over the years so it doesn't look exactly like his current offerings; of course I could be mistaken. Maybe forward the picture to him and ask.

Looks similar enough I suppose, thanks.

Am I the only one here that can't stand his website? I can't turn off those effin' irritating sound effects off.

Oh, and this thread should be stickied!

Two things, you gotta love the huge pile of oil under that Triumph ha ha....and I now have to clean the drool off my keyboard after seeing that absolutely magnificent deep red Suzuki Titan 500 (Think in USA they were called a Cobra?) it's about 1962 vintage oohhhhhhhh you lucky lucky owner.....Hush.

i'm pretty sure thats a BSA

I like this bike, but I think the tail is too short for my taste. Bring it out another 4-6 inches and it would be just right.

squirley · « **Reply #45 on:** July 03, 2008, 10:27:50 AM »

I just had to post this bike in Inspiration gallery. The pictures are compliments of turboguzzi. I hope you don't mind me using them. This bike is the meaning of sexy on so many levels.

That last bike............AWESOME!

rbmgf7 · « **Reply #47 on:** July 03, 2008, 03:09:09 PM »

this one has to be my fav of all time

i have one more i'll post once i find it. it's a black one with a stretched tank (used 2 750K tanks), black 4-4, cafe style, taken in front of a lake i think. i think he's a member here from somewhere in europe

Ecosse · « **Reply #48 on:** July 03, 2008, 03:15:54 PM »

I'm with ya on that rbmgf7. You must have gotten (as did I) those pix from eBay. The fuel gauge in the cap was very cool. The only other one I saw was really beat up so I didn't buy.

Love this bike; wonder if he built any more.

Spikeybike · « **Reply #49 on:** July 03, 2008, 03:34:08 PM »

i remember that bike from ebay as well , thats why i switched to a K gas tank , in hopes to find one of those gas gauges.

witch i have never found, that damn cap is so rare i'm afraid of what it will cost me once i do find one
